Where are my vitamins?

The body is a very complex system that is constantly in need of nutrients to survive. This means that we must be on top of the game the whole time: What does my body need to have a good balance of vitamins and minerals? First, it all depends on the amount of physical activity each person has during the day, stress levels, amount of sleep, environment (is it polluted), workplace…

Taking all these into account, each person should determine how they feel and their bodies look: Am I tired, moody and are my nails weak? Those are all ways in which our bodies tell us that we are missing essential micronutrients (vitamins and minerals required by the body to perform correctly), and we should listen to it). This is a very easy way to prevent further problems with our health. It is the way in which we avoid any serious illness and act before a big problem has risen.

There are some people that help themselves through supplements, but we should not rely only on these because there is nothing better than taking our micronutrients directly from the source. NOTE: If you feel unwell, it is important for you to visit the doctor and check if you have any insufficiencies. Sometimes diet alone is not enough.

Here are some key foods and their vitamins for you to include in your diet and your recipes:
